Organised by

West Central London Fixers

WCL Fixers bring together volunteer repairers and the community to fix their electronics for free.

The idea is to nurture repair culture in the community, rather than throwing away electronics – indeed e-waste has become a huge environmental problem. The events are open to volunteer learner repairers so are educational as well.

Support West Central London Fixers run free repair events by making a donation.

We recommend the ifixit toolkit for getting started with fixing electronics - click on link

NB - ref: ifixit toolkit - a small percentage of sale will go towards West Central London Fixers Community Interest Company.
